Thanks, Chelsfield. It was a journey and a half. As I listened to each chapter, brought to life, I was amazed, and kept thinking, did I really write this???

Today, by by mistake, I clicked on the wrong place on my tables I found out that my book "LORNA" is also an Audio book. I heard this voice reading from my book. Cool!!!!!!!!!! Attachments:

riaroseYes. Well, this is Julie Harris' thread, the thread about HER audiobook - not a "free-for-all to advertise here" thread.

So someone saw your book and did the work to make it an Audio book? I find that hard to believe. What am I missing? Is it some sort of text-to-read app?

The riarose post is a thread hijack,ahpellett. My audiobook was done via ACX.

Julie - Thanks for clearing that up, Julie. How are your print vs. audio sales volumes comparing? e.g., 4 for every 1.
PS Sorry about the slow reply

So far, audio is a lot better than ebook (8 to 1) and slow response is forgiven. You must be in writing mode. Lucky you.

That's an impressive ratio! Then again audiobook have been gaining in popularity among a wider demographic, especially with the rise of the MP3.

Audiobooks. Jeez! Such fun. I did 9 before falling over in a drunken stupor. Ok. I fall over most nights. I stuck mine on a too small but eager to please site called distribly.com. I think you can still get a free version of Starlight Army from there. Listen to samples of all the others. I actually sold a copy of one the other day. The trick is, put a hyperlink in the ebooks to the audio versions. Off you go. Get a freebie audiobook. Starlight Army. Shooo! Go get.

I clicked on my book "LORNA" on my tablet the other day and nearly fell off my chair when somebody started to read my book. In other words it's also an Audio book somewhere and I could not find it again. I think it is an AB on Smashwords although I don't see it as an AB there. Strange.
